Success Stories • New Product Introduction Support A developer of physical therapy products needed manufacturing support. The product is built in KEG’s Tampa, Florida facility and • Extended Product Life Cycle Support The customer is a manufacturer of medical imaging equipment and the products are image resonator units used • Sustaining Engineering Support The customer is a medical imaging equipment manufacturer who wanted assembly support in close proximity to its Silicon Valley location to augment its lean • Transfer of Work The customer was a manufacturer of medical patient monitoring devices. KEG’s Tampa facility is producing the PCBAs. The project has a mix of product families with

• Efficient migration of new products through production qualification and into volume production
• Early identification of potential manufacturing or test issues in new products and proactive identification of component quality or lifecycle issues which develop over the life of the product
• Ability to meet changing market demands on higher mix, medium volume products
• Consistent achievement of cost reduction goals through joint focus on optimized manufacturing and logistics processes
• Compliance with relevant regulatory requirements related to manufacturing, documentation and traceability | Quality Certifications |
• Ability to manufacture and support the post-manufacturing service requirements of long-life products
• Support of production migration to facilities around the globe as market proximity needs or margin requirements dictate.

Our goal is to not only serve as an extension of your manufacturing, but to support your entire product lifecycle strategy from product development through post-manufacturing support. Currently, Medical Solutions represents about 40% of Kimball Electronics Group’s revenue. We provide a full range of services including product development support, board-level manufacturing, box build manufacturing, disposables manufacturing, packaging, sustaining engineering, fulfillment, repair depot and refurbishment. A sampling of the medical devices we support include:

• Diagnostic imaging equipment (including ultrasound, MRI and Computed Tomography)
• Hematology equipment
• Urinalysis equipment (including disposable test strip manufacturing)
• Surgical instruments
• Defibrillators
• Vital signs monitoring
• Laboratory measurement
• Physical therapy
• Glucose monitoring
• Respiration monitors
• Home health care

Our projects range from complex, low volume subassembly builds to higher volume board-level or complete unit builds. In some cases, we support product lifecycles of 7-10 years. In every case, our goal is to support our customers’ needs with the right mix of services, facility build site options and technical expertise.
